2010 Kona Abra Cadabra custom build. XT shifters, Elixir CR brakes, DT EX1750 wheels, Float RLC 150 w/ tapered steerer, thrown together with some parts we had lying around the shop like the SLX crank and heavy FSA stem. All together it comes in at a little over 29 pounds.

I picked this Surly 1x1 with a better-than-decent Marzocchi fork up on ebay last month. I had it converted from SS to a 1x7. I added the racks and aero bars with
my radio strapped to that. Took it out on the trail today for the first time since the re-build. The thing rode great.
Next up is a new paint job.

My '08 Stumpy FSR shod with new Crossmax ST wheelset. Need to get a Chris King bottom bracket before I put on the RaceFace crankset I got for a steal then the upgrade-itis will be done.
